The best restaurants serving British food in Northampton East Midlands

Food was lovely and very filling. Good portion sizes and although it was a quiet night, the atmosphere was pleasant. Kym was fantastic, she shared her knowledge on the menu and the various entertainment the pub provides. Fantastic serve all round.

Went there yesterday to watch the football with some friends we had good food and drinks. Great atmosphere, very busy and good fun.

Lovely food and service! Will definitely be returning! We did have to wait 10-15 minutes which was no issue as the food was piping hot and was fresh!

Everything a pub should be. The lamplighter is not our local, but we use it as one. It is worth the further travel. The food is incredible, honest, and delicious pub food with vegan tapas on a Tuesday that is always so innovative. The roast on a Sunday is by far the best in town, not one to miss! The excellent food and the vast drinks on offer (including fantastic cocktails) are second, however, to the lamps biggest selling point - the staff! They are happy and welcoming, have a chat and a laugh with you, and make us feel like we're part of this magical pub. Try the lamplighter for food, drinks or even for one of their legendary dj nights and you definitely will not be disappointed!

Never disappointed enjoy visiting for catch-up drinks and a meal. Friendly accommodating staff. Food served hot and good value.

Been here a few times, pre christmas get together with family. 7 of us. Food is always very good. Recommend the snowball its huge ! Service is excellent- actually an entertainment in itself. Maddie must be a stand up comedian if she's not she needs to be, take it from an actor. We did oddly have to ask for crackers. Which were those new fangled silent ones - pointless really. You will pay around £50pp 3 courses, which is think is worth it.

Went for Christmas meal 21st dec with friends. The food was lovely and hot and my vegan option was very tasty. One of the best Xmas dinners I have had. All the staff were friendly and helpful and lovely atmosphere with the decorations. Will definitely go back next year.

Wacky warehouse I visited yesterday with my 2 young children what a place! The lovely polite young working was more than happy to talk me through the rules being my first time at the soft play I managed to catch his name Reece I think it was he informed me on the offers of kids eat free so I snapped that deal up! Brilliant for the kids great prices fantastic staff!

We meet with family here quite often, they do a fabulous carvery at a reasonable price, and don’t mind if we sit and have a drink or two afterwards, sometimes 2 hours! The staff are always friendly, lovely decking outside on a warm day if you want to sit out and have a drink, also they have the Greene King app so you can order at your table. You don’t have to have carvery, they have an extensive menu, plus kids menu and desserts. Would highly recommend.

Went for a work Christmas do for the festive Christmas feast. Waited over an hour after our pre booked arrival time before we were told we could go and help ourselves at the buffet by which time some things had run out and the warm food was tepid. Food was average. No table water and no nibbles while we waited. Limited bar choice. Disappointing night and terrible value for £30 excluding drinks.

The time for the delivery kept changing and unfortunately that affected how warm it was Thankfully the food was not overcooked or hard

I have just had a very odd experience with two of your bouncers. They refused me entry because my “eyes looked weird. l said that I had only had one glass of Prosecco and thought he was joking. My friends and I stayed and waited for them to check our ids. They then said “you’re not getting in. You either have hayfever or you’re too drunk.” We continued to think he was joking and asked if we could come in. He refused and very confused we walked away. I am writing this directly after this encounter so I am clearly not “drunk.” This was a horrid encounter. He obviously made up his mind about us before we started communicating at all. I will not be returning as I was singling someone out based on their appearance and I will not support an organisation that allows their bouncers to do this.

Thank you for your hospitality :) highly recommended for breakfast, especially turkish breakfast and kavurmali 👌🏻 in Northampton

Came in here on a Saturday night and it should've been packed but it was absolutely dead. The bar surface/floor was horrible and sticky, it's so dark and loud in there we couldn't see/hear each other. There was about 4 tables in the whole room and it's just as well that the place was empty. We tried to go to the smoking area outside but it was locked and the bouncer made us go back downstairs to sit in the really loud music room. No thanks.

We ate breakfast here. Cooked to order eggs were available and I got a large omelette which was filling. Nicely done hash browns, croissants were lovely. I liked the quality of the food and the friendly service.
